Cardinal 36” XT3 Table Blaster – Extra Tall, Triple Wheel
The 36″ XT3 table shot blaster stands out in the Cardinal Shot Blasting line-up with its distinctive taller design and triple side-mount blast wheels capable of horizontal oscillation. This innovative configuration includes a top and middle wheel rotating counterclockwise and a bottom wheel rotating clockwise, ensuring parts receive an even blast from both top-down and bottom-up directions. This meticulous design results in a more uniform and thorough cleaning process. The horizontal oscillation of the blast wheel pod, combined with the three vertically aligned wheels, creates a unique tall and wide blast pattern. This ensures comprehensive coverage of both vertical and horizontal spaces within the work chamber, significantly reducing process times. The design is particularly advantageous for processing complex geometries, offering a level of efficiency and precision that is hard to match. Furthermore, the XT3 table shot blaster features a built-in dust collector, a space-saving addition that also helps in lowering capital investment expenses. This combination of unique features and advanced capabilities positions the 36″ XT3 as one of the most versatile and efficient shot blasting units available in its size category. Its ability to deliver comprehensive coverage and handle intricate parts makes it a standout choice for businesses seeking top-tier performance in shot blasting technology.

CENTRIFUGAL BLAST WHEEL
WHEEL: An efficiently designed single-sided blast wheel minimizes the overhung load on the motor and reduces the time required to change blades, impellers, and control cage. The standard blast wheel measures 10” in diameter and features four curved blades for optimal abrasive control. All components are balanced to ensure smooth operation. With a high horsepower-to-weight ratio, this system enhances abrasive delivery efficiency per unit of horsepower.
MOTOR: Direct drive motor revolves at 3600 RPM. Taper lock brushed motor shaft with NEMA tolerance.
BLADES: Our innovative Snap lock system simplifies blade replacement without the need for any tools. Crafted from abrasive-resistant alloy in our in-house foundry, our curved blades offer optimal abrasive control. Cardinal shot blast wheels facilitate effortless blade replacement.
CONTROL CAGE: Dial type cage for ease of targeting the abrasive flow.
WHEEL HOUSING: Our wheel housings are made from durable steel plate and are fully lined with replaceable cast chrome manganese alloy liners produced in our own foundry.
OSCILLATION: The wheels are mounted vertically in a row on an oscillating “blast wheel pod.” This pod is made from fabricated steel plate and features an abrasion-resistant, replaceable bladder that provides flexibility during oscillation. The movement of the blast wheel pod is controlled by a pneumatic air cylinder. When combined with the three vertical wheels, this unique blast wheel pod ensures comprehensive coverage of both the vertical and horizontal spaces within the work chamber.
TABLE CONSTRUCTION
TABLE: A rotating table measuring 36 inches is constructed from a 1/4-inch steel plate and features an AR400 liner. Additionally, it offers an optional Variable Speed Drive.
OPTIMUM WORKING DIMENSIONS: 36” Diameter or diagonal, 40” high. Work Loading height is 27” with 1,000 pound capacity.
CABINET CONSTRUCTION
CABINET: Crafted from durable 1/4” abrasion-resistant plate, this shot blaster is engineered to withstand the toughest conditions. Tramp metal is efficiently collected on the lower abrasive screens, ensuring smooth operation. For added convenience, the cabinet can be notched to accommodate an overhead hoist, making maintenance loading more efficient.
LINERS: Rubber lined cabinet with abrasive resistant liners in line with blast wheel.
DOOR: Air operated power lock. 1/4” abrasive resistant door, rubber lined.
ABRASIVE RECYCLING SYSTEM
ELEVATOR: The bucket elevator system features cast iron sheaves and metal-stamped buckets. Our design ensures precise tracking and simple adjustments by employing a heavy-duty C-section banded V-belt elevator belt with a multi-cord construction. The abrasive shot blast media is transported by the metal-stamped buckets to the hopper situated above the machine. All of our shot blast media hoppers come with a screen to prevent larger debris from entering the shot blast wheel.
ABRASIVE CONTROL VALVE: Totally enclosed butterfly valves are air cylinder operated. Fully adjustable for abrasive flow control.
ABRASIVE SEPARATOR: Single 10” lip separator. Optional
ABRASIVE REQUIRED: 800 pounds.
VENTILATION
DUST COLLECTION: Effectively eliminates dust-laden air from the machine, ensuring a cleaner work environment. It incorporates a single 10-inch lip separator that efficiently separates fines and dust from larger abrasives, keeping the media clean as it is returned to the blast system. Additionally, the machine features an integrated 1200 CFM Dust Collector that is securely mounted with support legs for stability and optimal performance.
ELECTRICAL CONTROLS
CONTROL PANEL:
- Type 12 electrical enclosure.
- Thermal overload protection for all motors.
- Standard 230/460 volt ammeter.
- Oil tight push button controls.
- Timer controls the abrasive flow.
- Touch Screen PLC Controls.
SAFETY FEATURES: The blast wheel operates exclusively when the door is shut. An air lock mechanism ensures that the cabinet door remains securely closed throughout the blasting process. With an adjustable time delay feature, the flow of abrasives serves as a brake on the blast wheel before the door can be safely opened.
ELECTRIC MOTORS: All motors are totally enclosed, and fan cooled to provide maximum life. Optional 230/460 volt 3-phase.
